IBM so very, very sorry after jobs page casually asks hopefuls: Are you white, black... or yellow?

Re: Simple explanation

Ok... but I find your post wrong at so many levels. In certain communities, I'm a "honkie". In others, I'm a "round eye". And the list goes on. Racism goes both ways whether it's intentional or not. Among friends and in private, the racial things get tossed about back and forth. In public, we chose our words differently so as not to offend those who don't understand our friendships.

I note from acquaintances and travel that Brasil is probably the least racist country in north or south America. Race just isn't an issue.
